How are volcanoes and earthquakes linked to plate tectonics?
Yes. 1st of all the volcanoes are formed by the plates moving together and one going on the top.
What is the relationship between faults and volcanoes?
Volcanoes are usually found near convergent an divergent plate boundaries, which are themselves major faults and usually create minor faults. Minor faults can also provide a pathway for magma to reach the surface.
What is the relationship between the locations of volcanoes and earthquakes with regard to faults?
Volcanoes and earthquakes are often found along tectonic plate boundaries where there are faults. In the case of volcanoes, they can form at subduction zones where one tectonic plate is being forced below another. Earthquakes occur along faults, which are fractures in the Earth's crust where tectonic plates move past each other.
What happens when divergent boundaries occur in the middle of an ocean?
A ridge with transverse faults is formed, where new oceanic crust (seafloor) is formed.
What kind of land is formed by the plate boundary?
The landforms that are formed at a transform boundary forms features such as fault lines and oceanic fracture zones. Fault lines are also known as strike slip faults. They produce powerful earthquakes.

Where are located the volcanoes and earthquakes?
it is at faults or cracks

How would faults help the earth?
Earth faults, which create earthquakes and also promote volcanoes, are the source of new crustal layers, and the subduction of older crust. As such, they bring new minerals to the surface, which can benefit the living organisms there.
